Was that gouging at those one or two stations, or a legitimate response to the pipeline supply problem?

Yes, and no. Although there were only a couple of stations that kicked it up to $6, there were a lot at $5 - $5.50. It was caused by a panic rumor from some morning DJ's in Atlanta. A lot of it was most definitely gouging, and that's why the Governor stepped in and froze prices on Wednesday afternoon.
